CONCERNING REVIEW COPIES

I am happy to consider reviewing books on behalf of publishers. However, please note that I will publish my honest thoughts of the book. If I do not like it, I will and do feel obligated to point out the reasons why I would not recommend it to others. I maintain an affiliate account with Amazon and receive compensation for purchases which originate via the Amazon link provided in any given review.

Heaven to Betsy/Betsy in Spite of Herself will absolutely be read during the month of August. I'm trying to pre-read and get a head a bit in preparation for Sarah's (Library Hospital) Maud Hart Lovelace Challenge that will be up and running come October. I'm excited to FINISH reading the Betsy-Tacy books this year. Last year, during Sarah's challenge, I got about half way through. This year my goal is to finish off the series.

Beyond these, I make no promises. Summer is feeling rather lazy, what with it being wedding season around here and all. I'm reading when I can, and relaxing as much as possible. I'll be as surprised as you are to see what else stumbles forth from the bookshelves to my hands in the next few weeks. Mostly the goal is to have fun. That's the most important thing, right?

I didn't know you were a photographer, too - fun! A few years back, I read the first 4 or so of the Narnia books to the girls, and Dawn Treader is the one that sticks in my memory most clearly - maybe because of the voyage motif. I enjoyed it, and will enjoy the film as well. Happy reading!

I'm finally making the connection that you are a photographer! Wow---your pics are great. I needed you 15 years ago!

I am so excited for you about reading To Kill A Mockingbird. What fun to view it with fresh eyes. I know I've read it at least a dozen times since 9th grade English. Enjoy. I can't wait to hear what you think of it.

Voyage is on my list, too. I was in the process of reading the Narnia series but didn't care for A Horse and His Boy so I kind of got sidetracked but saw the trailer for Voyage last week so now I have to read it before the movie...I'm happy to see that you like it.Mama Bear

Oh, I have got to put “The Voyage…” on my list or I’ll keep forgetting to read it! Thanks for the reminder… I first read Mockingbird only a few years ago and was so glad I finally did. You’ll enjoy it. Yes, the goal is definitely to have fun with reading in the summer. Hope you continue to!
